The Waters Edge - Collingwood
Your Perfect Family Base on the Water’s Edge
Waters Edge is perfectly positioned for memorable family holidays, with a safe swimming beach just 50 metres away and a tidal estuary right at your doorstep. Located on a popular peninsula 10km north of Collingwood and 2.5km south of Pakawau Beach, this peaceful retreat offers a private setting surrounded by nature.
Dine outdoors with calming estuary views and the soundtrack of tūī and bellbirds attracted by the surrounding trees.
